Cherelle, a trainee lawyer, says that she has always wanted dimples but was upset that hers weren't noticeable.
'I've always loved dimples [but] I wasn't blessed to be given big ones,' she explained, adding that she liked Cheryl Cole's.
'When God was giving out dimples I was
at the back of the queue. I find myself on the street or watching TV and
anyone with dimples stands out to me.'
Dimpled: Cherelle shows off her dimples, on the
day of surgery, on the most recent episode of Bodyshock - now, the
indentations are much more subtle
But getting her dream
dimples came at a cost. Dimpleplasty surgery involves having holes
punched into the cheeks using a scalpel.
Once the hole has been
created, the new dimple is stitched into place. The surgery usually
costs £1,500 for two - however Cherelle got hers for free, in return for
letting the clinic use her story in its publicity materials.
'I
was online with my friend and we were basically having a joke as to
what procedures you could do and you couldn't do, and I was like: "wow, I
didn't know you could have your dimples done",' adds Cherelle.
Not so good: Cherelle, who has always admired dimples, was upset that she lacked her own
Painful: Cherelle has dimples punched into her cheeks and stitched into place under anaesthetic
I gave it a bit of thought, contacted them and here I am.'
She added: 'I
want really deep ones so every time I smile, they're there and I'm glad
it's for life as well. It's not something I'm going to have to repeat
which is good.'
Cherelle,
who appears in Channel 4 documentary Bodyshockers: My Piercing Hell,
was also filmed having the procedure and inspecting the eventual
results.
Speaking of her new
dimples in a scene from the programme, she said: 'I was impressed as I
didn't think they were going to be that deep, it's mixed feelings. Once
it has healed, I know I will love it.'
Once the surgery healed, after two weeks, the dimples became much less noticeable.
'The dimples are subtle and only visible when I smile,' Cherelle told Mail Online today.
Dimpled: Cheryl Cole, 30, is famous for her
much-admired dimpled visage; right, Cherelle now - the dimples are now
much more subtle, and are barely perceptible unless she's smiling
'THE FEAMALE BOSS': WHEN IMITATING AN A-LISTER GOES WRONG
One
person who knows all about the pitfalls of imitating a celebrity is
19-year-old Millie whose bid to impress her friends with a copy of one
of X-Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos' tattoos went dramatically wrong.
Millie's
tattoo should have read: 'The Female Boss'. But thanks to her inept
tattooist, Millie was left with one that said 'The Feamale Boss'
instead.
'I was mortified,'
says Millie of her embarrassing tattoo. 'When I was having it done, I
looked away because I was in so much pain.
Improvement: Millie was forced to conceal the offending etching with an inking of a quill
Oh dear: Millie's tattoo should have read 'The Female Boss'. Instead 'female' came with an extra 'a'
'He told me he was dyslexic and I spelled it right for him but he still spelt it wrong on my arm!'
Embarrassed,
cleaner Millie, who appeared on TLC show Extreme Beauty Disasters to
tell her story, tried to blame the problem on the N-Dubz singer, telling
her horrified mother Tracey that her tattoo was spelled the same way as
Tulisa's.
But
eventually, she revealed the truth - much to her mother's amusement. 'My
mum was a bit gobsmacked at first but then she thought it was funny
because things like that just happen to me,' says Millie, who has since
had the offending inking covered with an etching of a feather.
'Basically, it's my own fault, isn't it. But I don't want it to stay on my arm forever.'
Original: Millie was inspired by N-Dubz singer Tulisa Contostavlos' correctly spelt The Female Boss artwork
